When you come to the end of a lollipop,
To the end, to the end, of a lollipop,
When you come to the end of a lollipop,
Plop goes your heart!
Gilly Oh golly, how I love my lolly,
Down to the very last lick,
But when you are through with it, what can you do with it,
All you have left is the stick.
Gilly Oh golly, how I love my lolly,
Come winter and summer and spring.
But when you are done it’s about as much fun,
As a yoyo without any string.
Thank you Max Bygraves for the use of your lyrics to brighten up the day of my followers..
The Photographic Journey of bulldog. 
These are such fun photos and words. You’re brilliant!
Thank you…
This one is guaranteed to put a smile on anyone’s face! 🙂
I thought so too
Fun pics. And thanks for reminding me of that song. I must sing it to the grandkids soonest!
I had almost forgotten about the song, but somehow these photos made me think of it…
It works in the evening too..MOL 😀
lolol yep you’re right there…
Thanks for the laughter, the smiles and makes you heart light, even plop in a happy way. Awesome pictures. Full of adventure as always. Best wishes to you and your family
Thank you so much for such a nice complement…
Now that was so delightful bulldog. You certainly brightened my day. I hope you remembered to get me a lollipop as well…hehehe
Great shots of these beautiful furries my friend. Thanks for sharing. 😀 *hugs*
Yep I bought enough for us all… thanks Sonel…
Great photos they all have texture, like the words too, thanks for making me smile today, yo are so clever Bulldog. Have a great weekend!
Thank you Doris… you say the nicest things…
Love that song, bulldog. I haven’t had a lollipop in ages. 😦 Great pics of that mongoose, especially the first one.
You cannot believe the urge I have now for a lollipop .. but it is all my own doing so I will take the punishment… want one of those big curly ones…
Fantastic photos as usual. Love them
Thanks Al…
How clever you are to use a simple little poem to illustrate your photos. The first one is quite startling, with the mongoose standing straight up on his hind legs. But I enjoyed all of them.
Thanks Ronnie… I do enjoy taking the photos of Mongoose, they always seem so busy and full of concentration…
I absolutely refuse to admit that I’m old enough to remember Max Bygraves. Oops, I wish hadn’t commented now. 🙂
Join my club… the club for oldies that don’t think it, but who’s bodies remind them every now and then…
You always manage to capture the personalities of your subjects in such a fun way, along with your great lyrics or stories.
Thank you for such kind and complementing words… I do appreciate it…
Nice captures. I especially liked the last one with the red background.
Thanks Chris… good old Kalahari desert sand… with a smidgen of iron ore dust…
Sweet little fella.
Thanks … I appreciate..
That was lovely 🙂 Mongoose, right? 😀
That’s right… thank you…
Perfect – the poem and the photos – like a good wine pairing.
Thanks Anneli…
Quanto è carina questa bestiolina.
Ciao, Pat
He is a little cutie isn’t he…
Funny time for you to share this. My granddaughter was visiting me yesterday, I gave her a choice of two lollie: plain candied or a tootsie pop. When she picked the plain lollie, I explained that she most likely would enjoy the tootsie better. We took off to town. Suddenly she yells, “grandma,grandma”.
To this I reply, LOL, “Yes Liza”. She says,” there is chocolate in the middle. I was trying to understand what she was talking about and then I remember the lollie. :o) “Yes Liza there is chocolate in the middle”. The moral of the story is grandma always know best…. Hahaha.
Happy friday go have a lollie right?
and you have a good friday as well… what’s the saying.?? Great minds think alike…
Absolutely!! ;O)
Cute little guy…..I really like the new header photo. Those are Antelope or at least close……I love our Colorado Pronghorns aka Antelope.
Those are indeed antelope our famous Springbok… taken in the Kalahari where they love to live in huge herds…
Happy Friday! A new follower…my first time visit. Love all the animal images…very nice.
Thank you so much.. it is a pleasure to meet you and may you enjoy all you see… I do add more birds than animals there being more, and sometimes I go off on a tangent and pretend to be what I’m not… but welcome aboard the Bulldog train and hope you have a pleasant ride…
You amaze me – fantastic photos!
Thanks Julie… kind comment..
Great mongoose but not a clue as to the lolly connection to it 🙂
It was singing….
Mischievous looking character, especially in the first photo. Does this mean you admit to having a Max Bygraves record in your collection?
I used to have one from many many years ago… I think it was my Moms… but somehow the words just came into my head today and I did a google search for the song…
That first one looks like he’s almost posing and my first impression was…aw, how cute…then I remembered they were weasel’s, probably annoying as heck. Loved the nursery rhyme…very catchy.
Not annoying at all… it is the Yellow Mongoose, a good snake catcher and actually a lovely little fellow to get to know…
Now I want a lolly Bulldog :).
You’re as bad as Linda… now I’ll have to go to town…
Hahaha – go Linda!!
Aw, I love that top picture!!!
Thank you…
Oh my…it certainly did brighten my morning!! And again, my kids will love this post! The pictures are wonderful….the whole post is fantastic. Thanks, Bulldog!
Thanks Skye…
Aaah! I love the Mongoose you captured so beautifully. But Love you do know, that you now have to go to town and buy me a lollipop. Pretty pleeeease…..
On my way… will get some chocolate for myself…
Oooh, I would like some chocolate too please :).
